For Kirby

Recommended Posts

I've met her once or twice, but I certainly know who she is. She also coached US champion Ashley Wagner for a time, and a number of other elite competitors. .  She was also a former figure skater with very respectable results in her own right.

As I  recall, she's also involved with dog agility trials in her "off time".

Yes, and my dad picked her to be the handler of his new Norwich terrier. They are training agility and also canine freestyle which I suspect she excelled at. My dad seems very happy about the whole thing.

She's a very popular person in skating, which is a bit unusual because everyone can be so snarky and competitive.  Even the skaters who have changed coaches speak very highly of her, and she was always nice and down to earth if you saw her in the stands at an event.

This prompted me to do a search because I recalled reading about her working with agility trials and I found this article from 2016.
